Opis

Jesus: The Life, Companion Edition features Jesus: The Life, The Whosoever Gospels: A Medley, back to back with The Whosoever Gospels: Chapter and Verse Edition. The Medley blends the Gospel record of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John into a single, unified narrative. Their testimony is presented here in the form of a regular book. The account is framed with none of the "Bibleness" that sometimes serves as a roadblock to reading the Gospel message. There are no verse numbers, no footnotes, no marginal renderings, no commentary. Both the Medley and the Chapter and Verse Edition keep the identifying mark of The Whosoever Gospels: this marvelous word, whosoever. Dropped by most contemporary English language translations in favor of a more modern idiom, the incredible, inclusive nature of the term is lost to the eyes and ears and hearts of whosoever reads the good news of the Gospel. No other expression means "me too," quite like a good, old-fashioned whosoever: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16). This is the Gospel, the whole Gospel, and nothing but the Gospel of Christ Jesus. This is the complete witness of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John about the greatest news ever told; news of the one person who lived to become the lynchpin of all human history: Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ of God.
